Homestays in Thānkot

You wanna feel right at home while staying at the end of the world? That’s your place! Aashish, Suzu and Aama are the most wholesome homestay owners I have ever met! From the very beginning they made me feel absolutely welcome and helped me adjusting to the very new surroundings in no time! After getting picked up at the airport and finding our way through the chaotic streets of Kathmandu, we arrived at their lovely home in Kirtipur. While still being very close to the city centre and all the other attractions in Kathmandu valley, Kirtipur offers a calm and genuine atmosphere. The house itself is wonderful! The rooms are situated on three different floors. On each of them there is a bathroom to be found – so you won’t need to share it with too many people! The room you are sleeping in offers enough space for all your luggage, offers great comfort and gives you the privacy you want. And if you are fed up with privacy, the spacious living room and just finished dream of a garden creates great opportunity to meet other guests, take a nap on a couch, read, watch a movie or whatever else you can imagine! And of course you shouldn’t miss out on spending time with Aashish, Suzu and Aama themselves! They make you feel part of their family and the time we shared together was one of the most precious time during my whole trip in Nepal! We had great conversations, interesting discussions, watched whole series together, studied (a bit) Nepali and most importantly: we had looooots of fun! Aaaand loooots of amazing food! I have never eaten so well so often in my life! Own cooked food or the best of the best the local food shops have to offer day after day! In the morning time you could have Dal Bhat or if you were very early in the morning / in a hurry, some western style breakfast was prepared also! I stayed in Nepal for nearly two months and with Aashish’s family for a total of 5 weeks – every single day with them was a treat!

It felt like being home. Babu, Bella and their son Aayush were so welcoming, heart full and supportive. They cook amazingly tasting food every day freshly. Behind the house is a small garden. You can sit on the terrace and chill or do yoga. If you need any recommendations for places to visit, they will tell you the best ones.

I love everything about this place. It feels like home and the host is super lovely, you can feel how he is doing what he does with his heart. I was provided with fresh eggs, milk and vegetables from around the farms everyday. I will defenitely come back again when i need some peace and rest and nature.

Clean, friendly and lovely family... The lady cooks very tasty local cuisine for you They are always ready to serve...

One of the best stays in our trip in Nepal! We highly recommend to stay here, the house is so lovely and cosy. It is a very traditional Patan home, and the family is so friendly, they will help you with anything you will need. Very nice breakfast and dinner!

Very decent homestay and hosting family, highly recommend

Best location out of the crowded Thamel. Better atmosphere here than touristic areas.

Comfortable stay and great staff. I stayed for one week and would come back again. Good location a little away from Thamel, which is easily accessible by foot.

Extremely pleasant host Rabina. She was very helpful, courteous and extremely patient. Was proactive with her helpful tips to explore Khatmandu. Their house is very warm and had friendly vibes and the room I stayed in was exceptionally clean and had everything one could ask for. Definatly would recomed it to anyone travelling to Thamel, specially lady solo travellers.

I simply love this place and this family. Shortly after arriving it already felt like home. I had the pleasure to spend one month in this Homestay and I would (and will) come back in a heartbeat. The cozy rooms, the great food and the support you get for whatever you might need make everyday here incredibly pleasant.
